Stroke patient Ramnath Bheem, 64, his wheelchair-bound sister Sookeah Bheem, 79, and their dog died when a fire gutted their Cotton Hill Junction, Bon Aventure, Gasparillo, home in the early morning of April 10. The fire broke out around 4 am, neighbours said.

Living across the road, Gayle Pope said she heard glass breaking and even a car slamming on its breaks from her bedroom but assumed it was a fight happening along the roadway.

"When I come outside now and I watch I seeing fire coming from the back. Like it had a backroom in the back of that house. Fire just pelting coming through from the back of the house and I run outside with my vest and my panty and I start to bawl. I alert the neighbours well something happening."
